Our very first baby haul! What an exciting moment of our lives!
We are very happy to share this milestones with you all and to hear about your stories too.
What are your priorities when talking about baby shopping?

Our loved Chatuchak is the largest market in Thailand and among the largest in the world and it’s going on for over 60 years.
Covering 27 acres area, divided in 27 sections and with over 10000 stalls Chatuchak has a diverse range of products.
In our visits, I always drilled over the stunning baby goods and the time came for me to actually purchase this beauties for our baby!
We’ll be also shopping a few items for a friend’s baby girl, all around fun ladies and gentleman!🇹🇭

The Chatuchak weekend market is a very popular attraction for all visiting Bkk.
Fortunately, vegans will be able to experience real Thai dishes, street food style, with great assortment for incredibly low prices, thank the Vegetarian Society food court located just across the street from the famous market.
The place is a little hard to find, follow the GPS location for accuracy.

There are several ways you can complete a trip from Krabi to Bangkok, today we’ll show you how to do it by bus.Options: There are 2 kinds of buses, the normal 45 seater and the VIP that seats 26 people.
VIP buses are basically the same price as a flight to Bkk if you buy in advance. Yet, to and from the airport you’ll probably add up the costs with taxi fees, where to and from the bus terminals public transportation can be used. The VIP is also a great choice for those who want to avoid flights or enjoy the scenery a bus ride brings.Where To Buy It: The normal buses can be bought all around Ao Nang, Railay and Krabi Town but the VIP can only be purchased at the Krabi Bus Terminal or at the company app (Thai language only, helps is needed) and paid at 7Elevens.Prices: VIP buses cost 862 baht per person and the 45 seater will vary in price depending on where you buy it but will go around 600 baht.Time and comfort: The ride takes about 12 hours and is pretty comfortable done with the VIP which offers free meals, water, snacks, A.C., blankets, and reclinable spacious seats. We never tried doing it with the 45 seater so we can’t guaranty the level of comfort they offer, they might take a bit longer to complete the trip as well.
It was an easy and painless trip and we would do it again.

Here all addresses and extra info from everything you saw on the video:

Mo Chit Bus Terminal – สถานีขนส่งหมอชิต(Also known as Northern Bus Station or Chatuchak Bus Terminal)*Not to be confused with Mo Chit BTS skytrain station.BTS(skytrain): Mo Chit Station – Sukhumvit line, THEN TAKE A TAXI.

Second and last bus stop in Bangkok.

The trip was smooth and we had loads of fun in our fist day back in Bangkok. Stay connected to see it all!✨

Visiting the villages of Koh Jum and Koh Pu give us a glimpse on how the locals live, exploring its beaches show us how blessed they are!
From top to bottom, we went all around in a day, how cool is it to explore a new place?!

Here all addresses and extra info from everything you saw on the video:

The restaurant was recommended to us from a couple staying at our hotel, honestly, I think they forgot we are vegans.
It is nicely located at the village where you can see how locals live and it has a beautiful setting by the sea.
Even though they had basically only seafood at their menu, they were kind enough to cook Jay(vegan) food for us.

Times has come to say goodbye to amazing Railay, now it’s time to head over to Koh Jum for the very first time!
Let’s see what the island has to offer this new mommy and daddy who have feet on the sand and heads in the clouds.

Here all addresses and extra info from everything you saw on the video:

Boats to Koh Jum take around 1 hour to complete the ride, they depart from Krabi Town having Koh Lanta as the final destination.
There are also local ferry boats departing from Laem Kruad which will stop in Koh Sriboya on the way.

The island name is Koh Jum, yet, it’s separated into two areas. The northern Koh Pu and the Southern Koh Jum.
The boat will stop in two different pickup points near the island, it will depend on your hotel location which one to choose.
To avoid getting lost, ask your hotel in advance, otherwise, the boat staff will probably know where to leave you unless it is a pretty new or small hotel.
A free longtail boat will bring you to land.

The stunning location counts with several details that brought together make it just a real paradise.
A must visit while in the area, don’t even think about skipping it!
Spectacle monkeys, macaques, birds, and monitor lizards are all around.
From here there’s a viewpoint and lagoon trek, which is indicated only for experienced climbers.

We highly recommend to try this place out because it is really special.
We didn’t try the food, we only had drinks but the real reason to visit is the space.

Govinda’s At The BeachVegetarian RestaurantAddress: Located in the main street that crosses Railay West to EastGPS: 8.011451, 98.838370 (copy and paste in map’s search bar for exact location)
Open from 9 am to 4:30 pm, closed on Sundays. (hours may differ without reason)

The little stall is salvation for vegans staying in Railay. Unfortunately the quality is not to be compared with the main Govinda located in Ao Nang Beach, still, choosing wisely can bring you a fun meal. We recommend the spinach pie and hot dogs.
Their main problem is the opening schedule, that changes every single day.
Even with that in mind I would go back to the restaurant and recommend it, after all, they offer vegan food and we want to collaborate and celebrate that.

Here all addresses and extra info from everything you saw on the video:

We chose the fan room with cold shower private bathroom, it cost 999 bath per night.
They also had hot shower and a.c. rooms and counted with a communal swimming pool.
The hotel is located at Railay East and its a bit of a climb to get too but you’re probably going to do it once a day so it’s not a big deal.
It was the cheapest option in Railay at the time of our visit (high season).
For vegans, the food is pretty limited and bland, we recommend eating somewhere else.

There are a few different versions of the story behind the secrecy of the cave, all involving a female figure who’s a symbol of fertility.
One of them says that for centuries an Indian Princess Goddess spirit resides in Phra Nang Cave.
Hundred (maybe thousands) of Lingans are found in the cave as an offering, they are a symbol of fertility and virility. They come from Hindu culture and are incorporated with Buddhism, apart from the wooden penises, incense and flowers are also given as a sign of worship.
Together with the fertility blessings, local fisherman also asks for safety and abundance.
When trying to conceive I planned the trip and had the wish to be able to thanks the Universe for my gift on the cave. Luckily my dream came true.❤️

An islet located walking/swimming distance from Phra Nang Beach.
It has caves, bats, and beautiful stones; all with a relaxing vibe.

The info we bring you on this video is crucial for vegan or vegetarian travelers.
Diet can make or break a trip, Thailand is a wonderful veggie paradise but there’s a way to make it even easier to navigate through the country food scene.
Take note of this tip and enjoy your trip!

Here all addresses and extra info from everything you saw on the video:

Our pick was a budget double room with fan and shared bathroom, it cost 577 baht (high season).
The hotel is a quick walk from the beach and the lady who runs it is very nice and helpful.

Boats To RailayGPS: 8.031130, 98.822239 (copy and paste in map’s search bar for exact location)
Open from 8 am to 6 pm.Price: 200 baht round trip or 800 baht for a private longtail boat one way (good for unconventional times, destinations or large groups)

We advise you to buy one way, even though the return ticket is open, there are many different companies operating this route and they will not carry you unless it’s the right one.
It means if you have a schedule or a flight to catch it may become a problem, better to buy one way at a time.
